About Libanonweg 28B, Rotterdam
The asking price is 16% below the neighbourhood average of €469,833, which makes it keenly priced. However, the apartment is 56 m², which is 37% smaller than the average home in Kralingen West (89 m²). So you're paying less per square metre than the neighbourhood norm, but for a compact space.
The energy label is C, which is average for a pre-war apartment. You can expect moderate energy costs, not as low as a modern A-label home, but not as high as a G-label. In the neighbourhood, about 20% of homes have label A, 15% label B, and 33% label C, so this is in line with the local stock.
The nearest train station is 1.7 km away, which is about a 20-minute walk or a short bike ride. That's a reasonable distance for a Rotterdam neighbourhood.
Residents give mixed feedback: one says it's "sometimes unsafe" but otherwise clean and green. The total number of crimes reported in the area is 875, which is moderate for a dense urban neighbourhood. Overall, the neighbourhood scores 8.91 out of 10 from residents.
Yes, there are several schools within walking distance. The Libanon Lyceum secondary school is just 159 m away, and primary schools like KC Talma are about 438 m. There are also other secondary schools like Rudolf Steiner College and Melanchthon Kralingen within a few hundred metres.
This is an apartment built in 1908, so it's a classic pre-war home. The building likely has high ceilings and character features, but may need some modernisation. In the neighbourhood, 76% of homes were built before 1945, so this is typical for the area.
